Favorite Race:
Tri Goddess - I love this race because it is all women and many of them are first timers! It is also a local race for me so I have been able to race with friends who are competing in their first tri.
Biggest Accomplishments
I never thought that I would be able to compete in longer distance triathlon. Doing an Olympic distance race was a really big deal several years ago! I have now completed 4 half distance triathlons. Last year I had a hip replacement, so I'm hoping that my next biggest accomplishment will be coming back to triathlon racing this year!
Advice
Focus on your weakest discipline!
If I'm Not Competing...
I work as a personal trainer at the Jackson YMCA. I also coach Rock Steady Boxing, a specialty class for those who have Parkinson's Disease. I love doing anything out of doors...camping, hiking, golfing, and walking the dog. I also enjoy reading in my quieter times.
One Thing You Don't Know About Me:
I love to sing karaoke!
